Press comparing a video with its smaller copy: 78.5 MB smaller, with options to save and keep the original or ask to remove it
A real preview. Your decision.

Your library stays yours. No account, no uploads, no analytics.

Smaller files.
Same say in what stays.

Compressing a video shouldn’t mean crossing your fingers. Press puts the result in front of you first.

  1. Find the big stuff.

    Start with your largest videos, old screenshots, or photos you no longer need. See their actual sizes before you decide.

  2. Look at the smaller copy.

    Compare it with the original. Save it to Photos when you’re happy, or discard the copy and leave everything as it was.

  3. Remove only what you choose.

    Press checks that your copy is saved before offering to remove the original. Removal always needs your approval in Photos.

Removed originals go to Recently Deleted for about 30 days. You can recover them there, or empty it to reclaim the space sooner.

A camera roll.
A clearer way through.

Work through one item at a time, find the repeat shots, or keep just the still from a Live Photo.

Swipe to decide.

Keep, compress, or remove. One photo or video at a time, with undo when you change your mind.

A few things worth knowing.

Does anything leave my phone?

Press processes your photos and videos on your device. It has no account, server, or analytics. Items stored only in iCloud are downloaded when you choose to compress them. Your own iCloud Photos settings still apply to your library. Read the privacy policy.

Will the smaller copy look exactly the same?

Compression can change image quality. Press uses HEVC for videos and HEIC for photos, keeping photos at the same pixel dimensions. Compare the result with your original before saving, and keep the original whenever you prefer.

Why hasn’t my free space changed?

Removed originals stay in Recently Deleted in Photos for about 30 days. Empty that album if you want to reclaim the space sooner. With iCloud Photos, space may be freed in iCloud rather than on your iPhone.

Will Press compress everything?

Some files are better left alone. Press skips media it can’t copy without losing something important, such as Portrait photos with depth, HDR videos, and Cinematic videos. It tells you why each item was skipped.

Where can I find my saved copies?

In your Photos library, and in a “Press” album unless you turn that off in Settings. Press recognises its own copies and won’t suggest compressing them again.
